Apple opens up third-party app stores in Brazil
Apple is now permitting third-party app stores on iOS devices in Brazil, following an agreement with the country's competition regulator, CADE. Developers distributing apps outside of Apple's App Store will face a 5% Core Technology Fee on in-app purchases. While these alternative stores and their apps require Apple's approval and a "Notarization" review process, it is less stringent than the standard App Store review, aiming to balance security with reduced fees.
